The National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People (NAACP) has issued a travel advisory warning African-American travellers to be careful when flying with American Airlines. The social justice organisation has documented what it calls “a pattern of disturbing incidents reported by African-American passengers, specific to American Airlines,” according to its statement. The NAACP has not yet provided dates and further details of the incidents and could not immediately be reached for comment.
